"I dare not call myself one of Your Highness's kindred spirits; I only seek revenge." Hua Yeshuang was the first to pledge allegiance to Lu Qingyan, but Hua Yeyu was unwilling to give up so easily.
“Your Highness is in a difficult situation right now, barely able to save yourself. You say you'll seek justice for us, but whether you have the ability or not, I don't dare believe it.” Hua Yeyu, the older brother, was very wary.
"What does Young Master Yeyu mean?"
"Your Highness claims to be seeking a teacher, but in reality, you only want to find a strategist. Although I am not talented, I am willing to serve you if I encounter a wise ruler. I heard that Your Highness's maternal grandparents have changed their identities and are heading to the capital. It remains to be seen what Your Highness will do." Hua Yeyu tossed a message to Lu Qingyan, clearly intending to curry favor.
Lu Qingyan chuckled. She hadn't even started doing anything yet, and Hua Yeyu was already setting a challenge for her. How arrogant she was.
Lu Qingyan said confidently, "Please be careful, young master, this situation will surely be broken." She wanted to show off her skills, but suddenly remembered her current figure and gave up.
My obesity made me feel inferior and led me to wallow in self-pity...
Inside the palace, at the same time, a woman dressed in magnificent robes looked at her second daughter, Ren Fengyue, who was still motionless on the bed, and turned to question the imperial physician sharply: "Didn't you say that Fengyue was fine? Why hasn't she woken up yet?"
The imperial physician who was called upon was a slender middle-aged woman. Upon hearing this, she replied, "Your Majesty, the Second Princess is indeed out of danger. As for why she hasn't woken up yet, I truly do not know..."
She was also sweating profusely. The Second Princess had suddenly fainted after returning to the palace from school, which terrified the Empress. The entire Imperial Medical Academy was summoned by the furious Empress, and the Empress was also alerted.
"If my beloved Fengyue doesn't wake up, then you may all go and keep her company!"
When the emperor is enraged, millions will die. Even if you are not a particularly powerful emperor, your anger can still be terrifying.
"Your Majesty, please calm down!" The imperial physician pleaded repeatedly. Empress Ren Junhe was known for her bad temper, and killing people and confiscating property were common occurrences for her. She had elderly parents and young children to support and did not want to lose her life here.
"How can you expect me to calm down?" Ren Junhe looked at the withered old man before him: "Fengyue fell into a coma without any warning signs, yet you, as imperial physicians, couldn't find a single problem. What use are you?"
"Tianbao, tell me what happened today?" Ren Junhe asked, pointing to the female official serving Ren Fengyue.
The woman called "Tianbao" glanced at the unconscious Ren Fengyue on the bed with difficulty, and said with a troubled expression, "This... Your Majesty, I don't know whether I should say it or not?"
"Ha, I am the ruler of a country, what is there that I cannot know?"
"Nothing major happened today. It's just that Her Highness the Crown Princess fell when she left the school. The Second Princess kindly went to help her up, but she was pushed away." Tianbao was Ren Fengyue's servant, so naturally she would distort the truth at this moment.
Ren Junhe was not shrewd; he only listened to Tianbao's casual remark and immediately concluded that Ren Fengliu was guilty.
"That rebellious daughter!" Ren Junhe slammed his hand on the table beside him, splitting it in two. "I knew long ago that she was no good, just like her father. I never expected her to dare to do such a thing right under my nose. If I had known this would happen, I should have strangled her when she was born."
Ren Junhe was so engrossed in his anger that he failed to notice the smug look in Tianbao's lowered eyes.
Yes, isn't it something to be proud of to have the emperor completely under your thumb?
